Vitamin D deficiency can cause a variety of symptoms, and the severity of the symptoms can vary depending on the person and how severe the deficiency is. Some of the most common symptoms of low vitamin D include:
- Fatigue or tiredness
- Bone pain or achiness
- Muscle weakness, muscle aches, or muscle cramps
- Joint pain
- Depression or feelings of sadness
- Hair loss
- Loss of appetite
- Getting sick more easily
- Pale skin
- Anxiety
- Irritability
- Weight gain
Its important to note that most people with vitamin D deficiency are asymptomatic, so its possible to have low vitamin D levels without experiencing any symptoms. If youre experiencing any of these symptoms, its a good idea to see a medical professional. They may do a blood test to check your vitamin D levels to see if they are within normal range.
